Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:02:29,566 --> 00:02:32,694
Man: The Vietnam peace talks
are continuing here in Paris today
2
00:02:32,861 --> 00:02:34,655
against the background of what to do
3
00:02:34,821 --> 00:02:36,907
about the release of
American prisoners of war.
4
00:02:37,074 --> 00:02:40,577
In the United States,
sentiment is running high
5
00:02:40,744 --> 00:02:45,040
for a complete accounting
for all of the pows and Mias...
6
00:02:45,207 --> 00:02:46,917
Those listed as missing in action...
7
00:02:47,084 --> 00:02:48,460
Before any treaty is signed.
8
00:02:50,170 --> 00:02:52,464
The prisoners, men such as these,
9
00:02:52,631 --> 00:02:54,257
are Americans who have been captured
10
00:02:54,424 --> 00:02:56,677
during the 10 years of fighting
in Vietnam.
11
00:02:56,843 --> 00:02:58,637
The under secretary of state,
Conrad Morgan,
12
00:02:58,804 --> 00:03:01,264
is the chief American delegate
to the talks.
13
00:03:02,974 --> 00:03:06,561
This morning, outside the mansion
in which the talks are being held,
14
00:03:06,728 --> 00:03:09,648
Morgan told reporters
that he is optimistic.
15
00:03:09,815 --> 00:03:11,191
I now sincerely believe that
16
00:03:11,358 --> 00:03:13,252
the north Vietnamese delegates
are dealing in good faith
17
00:03:13,276 --> 00:03:16,571
and that significant progress
can now be made.
18
00:03:16,738 --> 00:03:18,865
Mr Morgan, as chief delegate
to these talks,
19
00:03:19,032 --> 00:03:21,284
are you saying a final agreement
has been reached?
20
00:03:21,451 --> 00:03:23,036
What I'm saying, sir, is what I said.
21
00:03:23,203 --> 00:03:27,290
The situation is extremely delicate, but
significant progress can now be made.
22
00:03:27,457 --> 00:03:28,834
Is that clear?
23
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:30,377
I certainly hope it is,
24
00:03:30,544 --> 00:03:33,064
because I would dearly appreciate
the ladies and gentlemen of the press
25
00:03:33,088 --> 00:03:34,464
getting that straight.
26
00:03:34,631 --> 00:03:38,552
What if kuong yen decides to throw
new roadblocks into these negotiations?
27
00:03:38,719 --> 00:03:41,471
I suppose we'll have to
take things one step at a time.
28
00:03:41,638 --> 00:03:43,682
Mr Morgan, there is one more question
29
00:03:43,849 --> 00:03:45,851
the American public
deserves to have answered.
30
00:03:46,017 --> 00:03:47,697
What about the Mias,
the missing in action?
31
00:03:47,728 --> 00:03:49,488
Have you and kuong yen
discussed that at all?
32
00:03:49,646 --> 00:03:51,189
Yes, of course we have discussed that
33
00:03:51,356 --> 00:03:54,276
and we will continue
to discuss that question.
34
00:03:54,443 --> 00:03:56,820
But as I'm sure you can all realise,
35
00:03:56,987 --> 00:04:00,407
that is of such a sensitive nature that
I'm not at Liberty to go into that now.
36
00:04:00,574 --> 00:04:04,411
I can only say this — that I'm very hopeful
that we will arrive at a solution.
37
00:04:04,578 --> 00:04:06,329
What the hell are you doing in my room?
38
00:04:06,496 --> 00:04:08,331
You told me to meet you here.
39
00:04:08,498 --> 00:04:11,877
Could have waited in the lobby.
Turn that goddamn thing off, please.
40
00:04:12,043 --> 00:04:13,503
I'm enjoying it.
41
00:04:13,670 --> 00:04:16,631
Reporter: Mr Morgan, please,
can we have a statement...
42
00:04:18,633 --> 00:04:20,969
Harolds, come on.
Bring that shit in here!
43
00:04:21,136 --> 00:04:23,889
Man: Corning, coming.
44
00:04:24,055 --> 00:04:27,851
I'm not as nimble as I used to be.
45
00:04:34,649 --> 00:04:38,528
Actually, Conrad,
I have always been rather clumsy.
46
00:04:40,655 --> 00:04:43,575
When you get that stuff cleaned up,
make me a scotch, will you, please?
47
00:04:44,785 --> 00:04:47,245
So the war is over,
mr under secretary?
48
00:04:47,412 --> 00:04:50,248
You're practically a national treasure.
49
00:04:53,001 --> 00:04:55,253
Which son of a bitch is that?
50
00:04:55,420 --> 00:04:58,715
Hope they cut his balls off.
51
00:04:58,882 --> 00:05:00,717
Give harolds a pair of scissors.
52
00:05:00,884 --> 00:05:02,969
When the time's right, I'll do that myself.
53
00:05:04,554 --> 00:05:07,098
Sounds like your private meeting
with kuong yen
54
00:05:07,265 --> 00:05:11,186
was what you guys in state call
“a frank discussion of the issues”.
55
00:05:11,353 --> 00:05:14,105
What the hell is this,
some kind of a joke to you?
56
00:05:14,272 --> 00:05:16,191
You could say so.
It's not to me.
57
00:05:16,358 --> 00:05:18,193
Well, somebody's gotta take it seriously.
58
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,279
I told 'em I didn't need
any goddamn CIA help on this thing...
59
00:05:21,446 --> 00:05:23,114
And they shove me down your throat!
60
00:05:23,281 --> 00:05:24,801
We've been through this
before, Morgan.
61
00:05:24,825 --> 00:05:26,868
Now, what the hell is it this time?
62
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,582
How many of your CIA people
are the vc holding?
63
00:05:32,749 --> 00:05:34,309
I don't know what you're talking about.
64
00:05:34,376 --> 00:05:35,978
Save that bullshit for congress.
How many?
65
00:05:36,002 --> 00:05:39,673
150, maybe. Why? They're dead.
66
00:05:39,840 --> 00:05:44,803
I take it the fact that we have positive
information to the contrary is irrelevant.
67
00:05:47,973 --> 00:05:49,724
Speak intelligibly, Morgan.
68
00:05:49,891 --> 00:05:52,936
As an addendum to the peace terms,
kuong yen wants a sacrifice.
69
00:05:53,103 --> 00:05:54,855
Call Omaha and get a flock of sheep.
70
00:05:55,021 --> 00:05:57,190
He claims he's lost a lot of family
to you people.
71
00:05:57,357 --> 00:06:00,777
I also think — this isn't important, of
course — but I think he's a psychopath.
72
00:06:00,944 --> 00:06:03,113
That makes him unique
in this business, doesn't it?
73
00:06:03,280 --> 00:06:07,284
In any case, we agree to write off
those people as missing in action
74
00:06:07,450 --> 00:06:11,204
and they agree to call off the war
and give us a lot of other people back.
75
00:06:11,371 --> 00:06:13,707
And you agreed?
76
00:06:13,874 --> 00:06:16,626
I didn't agree to anything.
77
00:06:18,378 --> 00:06:20,630
You practical sonofabitch!
78
00:06:20,797 --> 00:06:22,674
You're gonna cash in
those people's lives
79
00:06:22,841 --> 00:06:25,343
just for a shot at the nobel peace prize!
80
00:06:25,510 --> 00:06:27,596
Saunders, don't get
sanctimonious with me.
81
00:06:27,762 --> 00:06:30,140
Nobody's gonna win anything
when this war's over.
82
00:06:30,307 --> 00:06:33,059
If the vc want 'em dead so bad,
why don't they just kill 'em?
83
00:06:33,226 --> 00:06:36,271
They won't because they're worth
too much as a bargaining point.
84
00:06:36,438 --> 00:06:40,859
Wrong. They'll kill 'em just as soon as
they sign the treaty
85
00:06:41,026 --> 00:06:45,447
or they'll hold them as Mia
till they're through interrogating them.
86
00:06:45,614 --> 00:06:47,414
In any case, what I'm trying to say,
Saunders,
87
00:06:47,532 --> 00:06:50,869
is we have to at least try to get
some of those people out of there.
88
00:06:52,662 --> 00:06:55,332
I hate to think I've been
misjudging you, Morgan.
89
00:06:59,461 --> 00:07:01,338
Now, what do you call
those commando people
90
00:07:01,504 --> 00:07:03,024
you're holding under
the Phoenix umbrella?
91
00:07:03,048 --> 00:07:05,383
Black tigers.
92
00:07:05,550 --> 00:07:08,720
Who the hell thinks up
names like that?
93
00:07:08,887 --> 00:07:10,263
Black tigers!
94
00:07:10,430 --> 00:07:12,891
Actually, a group of us did,
some years ago.
95
00:07:14,684 --> 00:07:17,270
Don't let anybody kid you, harolds.
It's a great name.
96
00:07:17,437 --> 00:07:21,858
Can they get your people out?
I don't know, it's a very risky business.
97
00:07:22,025 --> 00:07:25,153
Take at least a couple of weeks
for an operation like that.
98
00:07:30,784 --> 00:07:33,244
48 hours? Right.
99
00:07:35,246 --> 00:07:39,334
What about staging a major operation
in the middle of your peace talks?
100
00:07:39,501 --> 00:07:41,920
I'll worry about the diplomacy.
101
00:07:47,842 --> 00:07:51,930
I get the feeling I'm offending
some sensibility in you.
102
00:07:52,973 --> 00:07:56,810
The American public is crying for peace.
I intend to achieve it for them.
103
00:07:56,977 --> 00:08:01,314
Like I said, you're practically
a national treasure.
104
00:08:19,833 --> 00:08:21,668
You know, Saunders,
when this war is over,
105
00:08:21,835 --> 00:08:24,129
you should get a job
as an advance man for cancer.
106
00:08:24,295 --> 00:08:27,090
In support of the disease or the cure?
107
00:08:29,426 --> 00:08:32,303
The American custom ofjoking
during a time of crisis.
108
00:08:32,470 --> 00:08:35,306
How certain are you of your intelligence?
109
00:08:35,473 --> 00:08:38,226
To be perfectly honest with you,
major mhin,
110
00:08:38,393 --> 00:08:41,438
the only thing certain about intelligence
is uncertainty.
111
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:45,233
As usual, you're a big help.
112
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,737
This better be as important
as your boys at headquarters said it was.
113
00:08:48,903 --> 00:08:50,488
Let's go, mhin.
114
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,578
What do you think
prince is gonna say
115
00:08:56,745 --> 00:08:58,788
when we come
walking in there after him?
116
00:08:58,955 --> 00:09:01,541
“You came a long way, Fred,
to collect your bread.”
117
00:09:01,708 --> 00:09:05,045
That's what he's going to say.
You'd better believe that, baby.
118
00:09:05,211 --> 00:09:08,548
What makes them think Hanoi
will sit still for this kind of stunt?
119
00:09:08,715 --> 00:09:11,301
It must make some kind of sense
or they wouldn't be sending us.
120
00:09:11,468 --> 00:09:14,304
One camp. What good could it do?
The pows are in dozens of camps.
121
00:09:14,471 --> 00:09:17,474
It's the camp with the most guys in it.
It's the best we can do.
122
00:09:19,726 --> 00:09:21,603
Can do anything but harm
the negotiations.
123
00:09:22,645 --> 00:09:24,773
Major, I thought
the goddamn war was over.
124
00:09:24,939 --> 00:09:27,275
So did I, but it's not. What's your point?
125
00:09:27,442 --> 00:09:31,154
The point is, major, we don't want to be
the last guys killed in this friggin' war
126
00:09:32,864 --> 00:09:35,825
I think they've got us down
for second to last.
127
00:09:35,992 --> 00:09:38,119
Jesus Christ — whatever happened
to the good old days
128
00:09:38,286 --> 00:09:41,706
when Randolph Scott and John Wayne
were happy to have their asses blown off
129
00:09:41,873 --> 00:09:44,167
for the good ol' us of a?
130
00:09:44,334 --> 00:09:46,211
Who the hell is Randolph Scott, man?
131
00:09:46,377 --> 00:09:49,672
Randolph Scott key —
Dude who wrote the national anthem!
132
00:09:49,839 --> 00:09:52,008
Oh, that Randolph Scott!
133
00:09:52,175 --> 00:09:54,969
You can joke if you want,
but I've got a score to settle.
134
00:09:55,136 --> 00:09:57,472
That's the spirit, gordie —
An ear for an ear!
135
00:09:57,639 --> 00:09:59,808
I said not to joke around
about my ears, didn't I?
136
00:09:59,974 --> 00:10:02,685
You're gonna have a hard time
finding an ear that size, gordie.
137
00:10:02,852 --> 00:10:05,730
Just give me a couple whole heads.
I'll use what I need.
138
00:10:05,897 --> 00:10:09,442
What do you know?
We can go first class!
139
00:10:09,609 --> 00:10:11,361
You gonna serve coffee, Randolph?
Sure!
140
00:10:11,528 --> 00:10:14,030
I want Lola falana to serve my coffee!
141
00:10:14,197 --> 00:10:15,865
Gonna be a movie on this flight?
Yeah.
142
00:16:43,878 --> 00:16:45,463
Mhin'?
143
00:17:03,189 --> 00:17:05,733
Major, over here! Get in!
144
00:17:44,814 --> 00:17:46,315
Get him.
145
00:17:46,482 --> 00:17:49,860
Come on! Alright, let's get out!
146
00:17:53,364 --> 00:17:55,366
Get him! Come on!
147
00:17:55,533 --> 00:17:58,202
What's the matter?
Goddamn thing won't start!
148
00:18:01,414 --> 00:18:02,957
Come on!
149
00:18:08,963 --> 00:18:11,173
Get out! Move out! Let's go!
150
00:18:11,340 --> 00:18:13,134
Come on!
151
00:18:33,362 --> 00:18:36,157
Come on, gordie.
Come on, pal! We gotta run!
152
00:18:37,199 --> 00:18:38,701
Where we running, Mike?
153
00:18:38,868 --> 00:18:42,079
Are we late for the train or something?
154
00:18:57,345 --> 00:18:58,971
Where the hell are the choppers?
155
00:18:59,138 --> 00:19:02,224
The choppers aren't here.
Why don't we take the train?
156
00:19:08,356 --> 00:19:11,150
Nighthawk, this is tiger 1. Over.
157
00:19:14,111 --> 00:19:16,405
Nighthawk, this is tiger 1. Over.
158
00:19:20,910 --> 00:19:23,162
Somebody's going to pay
for this screw-up.
159
00:19:23,329 --> 00:19:25,039
I think I know who.
160
00:19:25,206 --> 00:19:27,583
Yeah, us.
161
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:33,631
Nighthawk, this is tiger 1. We're at l2
and waiting for pick-up. Over.
162
00:19:39,011 --> 00:19:40,805
I don't get it.
163
00:19:40,971 --> 00:19:46,435
Everything went wrong by the numbers.
And that takes planning.
164
00:19:50,898 --> 00:19:52,608
What the hell are you talking about?
165
00:19:53,859 --> 00:19:56,237
I'm saying we've been set up.
166
00:20:02,243 --> 00:20:03,828
Where are the choppers?
167
00:20:05,705 --> 00:20:08,249
I just told you, gordie, it was a screw-up.
168
00:20:08,416 --> 00:20:10,876
I like choppers. They're like birds.
169
00:20:11,043 --> 00:20:14,463
You like birds, don't you?
Sure I do, gordie. Sure I do.
170
00:20:17,299 --> 00:20:19,176
Where are the choppers?
171
00:20:20,219 --> 00:20:22,805
I like choppers. They're like birds.
172
00:20:22,972 --> 00:20:26,475
I shot a bird once.
My daddy took my rifle away...
173
00:20:28,394 --> 00:20:30,771
Yeah. Take care of him, Mike.
174
00:20:31,856 --> 00:20:34,024
What do we do now? Survive.
175
00:20:34,191 --> 00:20:36,068
Lou, the point. Walker, the rear.
176
00:20:36,235 --> 00:20:38,487
Where are you going, Mike?
Going home.
177
00:20:38,654 --> 00:20:41,657
What do we do, walk out?
If you spot a taxi, flag it down.
178
00:22:35,688 --> 00:22:38,357
How'd it feel?
A hell of a lot better!
179
00:22:39,733 --> 00:22:41,819
Let's clean her out
and I'll give her another try.
180
00:22:48,242 --> 00:22:50,953
I think our troubles with this baby
are just about history.
181
00:22:51,120 --> 00:22:52,680
You spend one more minute
with this car,
182
00:22:52,830 --> 00:22:55,291
I think that baby down there
is gonna be history.
183
00:22:55,457 --> 00:22:58,460
Damn, can you believe
I forgot all about her?
184
00:22:58,627 --> 00:23:02,298
Any man who forgets something like that
needs a lube job and oil change real bad.
185
00:23:02,464 --> 00:23:04,383
I can't wait to get her on the rack.
186
00:23:08,262 --> 00:23:11,724
Goddamn it, booker, what's a girl
have to do to get your attention?
187
00:23:13,475 --> 00:23:15,185
I'm sorry, Kelly.
188
00:23:18,564 --> 00:23:20,441
Ay, yi, yi.
189
00:23:20,608 --> 00:23:24,862
You're really going to be mad.
I've got a class to teach in one hour.
190
00:23:34,747 --> 00:23:37,166
Come on, booker, get in.
191
00:23:54,558 --> 00:23:58,145
And so, as history slowly places it
into some kind of perspective,
192
00:23:58,312 --> 00:24:00,397
a few things about the Vietnam war
have become clear.
193
00:24:01,941 --> 00:24:04,276
It was a war
that never should have begun
194
00:24:04,443 --> 00:24:06,236
in a country
we never should have entered.
195
00:24:06,403 --> 00:24:11,200
And its thousands of victims died
without really understanding why,
196
00:24:12,242 --> 00:24:16,080
mainly because the reasons for the war
were beyond any rules of logic.
197
00:24:18,415 --> 00:24:20,292
On Wednesday,
we'll sing patriotic songs
198
00:24:20,459 --> 00:24:21,961
and pretend I said none of the above.
199
00:24:25,214 --> 00:24:26,757
Good lecture, man. Thank you.
200
00:24:26,924 --> 00:24:29,009
See you, booker.
201
00:24:32,638 --> 00:24:34,181
You're welcome.
202
00:24:41,730 --> 00:24:43,816
I hope you didn't mind my sitting in.
203
00:24:45,192 --> 00:24:47,611
Seems a long ways from the '60s,
doesn't it?
204
00:24:47,778 --> 00:24:49,363
Yes, it does.
205
00:24:49,530 --> 00:24:51,448
Can I take you to lunch?
206
00:24:51,615 --> 00:24:55,452
I don't eat lunch. Who are you?
207
00:24:55,619 --> 00:24:58,247
Let me take you to dinner and find out.
208
00:24:59,289 --> 00:25:02,001
You do eat dinner?
I've been known to.
209
00:25:05,170 --> 00:25:09,508
I'm on an expense account.
You're a reporter.
210
00:25:09,675 --> 00:25:12,803
Why else would I fly all the way out
from Washington to see you?
211
00:25:12,970 --> 00:25:14,513
I don't know.
212
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:18,392
Pick me up at 7:00?
213
00:25:18,559 --> 00:25:20,227
7:00 is too late.
214
00:25:20,394 --> 00:25:22,396
Forus?
215
00:25:22,563 --> 00:25:25,190
For dinner. How about 5:30?
216
00:25:25,357 --> 00:25:28,110
At 5:30 in Washington,
they're still out to lunch.
217
00:25:28,277 --> 00:25:30,320
In Washington,
they're always out to lunch.
218
00:25:30,487 --> 00:25:33,449
Besides, I have a feeling
this might be a very interesting evening.
219
00:25:36,744 --> 00:25:39,246
You're the professor, professor.
220
00:25:56,180 --> 00:25:59,725
That's it, mister.
That's a good job.
221
00:25:59,892 --> 00:26:03,062
Too bad you weren't born black. There
might have been a future in this for you.
222
00:26:03,228 --> 00:26:06,690
Hey, mister, you forgot your newspaper.
223
00:26:09,151 --> 00:26:10,861
Thank you, my man.
224
00:27:54,339 --> 00:27:55,883
Quite a car.
225
00:27:56,049 --> 00:27:59,344
Not exactly ideal for going
from stoplight to stoplight, is it?
226
00:27:59,511 --> 00:28:01,511
Not unless they're a couple
of hundred miles apart.
227
00:28:01,597 --> 00:28:02,973
Pretty much for a grad student.
228
00:28:03,140 --> 00:28:05,058
I do some test driving,
and like a damn fool,
229
00:28:05,225 --> 00:28:06,894
I took the car instead of the salary.
230
00:28:48,393 --> 00:28:50,062
What the hell is he trying to do?
231
00:28:56,485 --> 00:28:57,527
Hang on!
232
00:29:15,003 --> 00:29:17,003
Alright, you sonofabitch,
what the hell's going on?
233
00:29:17,089 --> 00:29:18,929
Take it easy, man!
The accelerator pedal stuck!
234
00:29:19,049 --> 00:29:21,885
What?
I said, “the accelerator pedal stuck.”
235
00:29:22,052 --> 00:29:23,887
Why didn't you kill the engine?
236
00:29:24,054 --> 00:29:25,973
Because I thought
I could kick the pedal loose.
237
00:29:40,737 --> 00:29:42,698
I wish I knew.
I think I need a drink.
238
00:29:42,864 --> 00:29:44,324
Any place in particular?
239
00:29:44,491 --> 00:29:47,577
Your place. As long
as you drive carefully.
240
00:29:49,246 --> 00:29:52,332
Are most of your days
usually as exciting as this one?
241
00:29:52,499 --> 00:29:55,877
Not quite, but I've got a feeling
things are about to change.
242
00:29:56,044 --> 00:29:58,005
If you've got something to say, say it.
243
00:29:58,171 --> 00:30:01,049
You were on a top-secret mission
to rescue some pows
244
00:30:01,216 --> 00:30:03,010
at the end of the war.
245
00:30:05,554 --> 00:30:07,055
No response?
246
00:30:07,222 --> 00:30:10,309
I get it. You're writing
a book about the war.
247
00:30:12,769 --> 00:30:14,313
Something like that.
248
00:30:15,355 --> 00:30:19,443
When you arrived at the camp,
there were no pows, only Vietcong.
249
00:30:19,609 --> 00:30:21,361
You lost most of your men.
250
00:30:22,946 --> 00:30:26,241
I wonder who told you about that.
It was all top secret.
251
00:30:26,408 --> 00:30:27,951
Shall I go on?
252
00:30:29,745 --> 00:30:31,121
Are you married?
253
00:30:31,288 --> 00:30:32,873
After the raid, you were to be met
254
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:34,920
and flown to safety by helicopter
with the pows.
255
00:30:35,042 --> 00:30:36,418
The helicopters didn't show,
256
00:30:36,585 --> 00:30:39,588
so you marched out of the jungle
with five of your men.
257
00:30:43,550 --> 00:30:45,093
Do you fool around?
258
00:30:51,516 --> 00:30:54,394
It took you three weeks
to get out of the jungle.
259
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:59,149
Then you were, as they say, 'debriefed'
in the hospital for two months.
260
00:30:59,316 --> 00:31:02,527
Nothing was ever printed
about that strange sortie.
261
00:31:02,694 --> 00:31:03,987
Why not?
262
00:31:04,154 --> 00:31:06,615
How about something to eat?
263
00:31:06,782 --> 00:31:10,619
Whatever happened to those pows
who weren't there to be rescued?
264
00:31:10,786 --> 00:31:13,830
Have they been returned?
Are they Mia?
265
00:31:13,997 --> 00:31:15,540
Are they dead?
266
00:31:15,707 --> 00:31:18,960
Will anybody admit
that they ever existed?
267
00:31:19,127 --> 00:31:21,922
Will you answer any of those questions?
268
00:31:22,089 --> 00:31:24,341
Now, what can you do with one egg?
269
00:31:40,649 --> 00:31:42,901
I tried it once. I didn't like it.
270
00:31:48,990 --> 00:31:51,451
Your unit was a part of
operation Phoenix.
271
00:31:51,618 --> 00:31:55,455
Its job was to 'neutralise',
I believe they called it,
272
00:31:55,622 --> 00:31:57,666
the Vietcong undercover agents.
273
00:31:57,833 --> 00:32:00,794
You were also assigned
to rescue our own pows.
274
00:32:00,961 --> 00:32:03,255
You're very intense for a girl with such...
275
00:32:08,677 --> 00:32:13,557
How about one egg
with oysters and Sauerkraut?
276
00:32:15,350 --> 00:32:17,602
Are you gonna tell me anything?
277
00:32:19,020 --> 00:32:21,148
There's really not much to tell.
278
00:32:21,314 --> 00:32:25,402
In the hospital, they told us the vc
intelligence had cracked our security.
279
00:32:25,569 --> 00:32:27,612
Reasonable possibility.
280
00:32:27,779 --> 00:32:29,906
They said our choppers
had been shot down.
281
00:32:30,073 --> 00:32:32,075
Reasonable possibility there.
282
00:32:32,242 --> 00:32:34,536
Then they said by the time
they got replacements to us,
283
00:32:34,703 --> 00:32:36,079
there was nothing but bodies.
284
00:32:36,246 --> 00:32:37,998
That's what they said.
285
00:32:38,165 --> 00:32:40,459
And like an obedient soldier,
you believed them.
286
00:32:40,625 --> 00:32:43,336
In the hospital,
I told myself the war was over.
287
00:32:43,503 --> 00:32:45,714
I lived through it, now put it behind you.
288
00:32:45,881 --> 00:32:48,717
I could spend years trying to find out
if somebody set us up.
289
00:32:49,885 --> 00:32:52,220
And if I found him, well...
290
00:32:52,387 --> 00:32:55,015
He most likely would be
someone I couldn't get to anyway.
291
00:32:55,182 --> 00:32:58,435
What if he were someone
you could get to?
292
00:32:58,602 --> 00:33:02,981
I decided not to waste my life
to avenge something I'd survived.
293
00:33:03,148 --> 00:33:07,527
It's over and I want to keep it that way.
294
00:33:07,694 --> 00:33:10,113
I don't believe you really feel that way.
295
00:33:11,281 --> 00:33:13,200
Why are you asking all these questions?
296
00:33:13,366 --> 00:33:14,743
I can't tell you.
297
00:33:14,910 --> 00:33:16,369
Then stop asking them.
298
00:33:16,536 --> 00:33:20,415
I met a man at a cocktail party
in Washington.
299
00:33:20,582 --> 00:33:24,377
He was what the newspapers refer to as
“a high-ranking government official”.
300
00:33:24,544 --> 00:33:26,630
He was also very, very drunk.
301
00:33:26,796 --> 00:33:29,674
The scotch seemed to break
some barrier in his mind.
302
00:33:29,841 --> 00:33:33,845
He mentioned the black tigers.
How's the Sauerkraut coming?
303
00:33:35,055 --> 00:33:37,057
Coming nicely, thank you.
304
00:33:37,224 --> 00:33:39,267
John t. Booker...
305
00:33:39,434 --> 00:33:43,146
A man taking his phd
in political science
306
00:33:43,313 --> 00:33:45,982
who used to be a member of the CIA.
307
00:33:46,149 --> 00:33:47,901
Sounds schizophrenic.
308
00:33:48,068 --> 00:33:50,153
I was never a member of the CIA.
309
00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:52,280
The black tigers were CIA.
310
00:33:55,283 --> 00:33:57,994
I didn't know the freedom of
information act was that effective.
311
00:33:58,161 --> 00:34:00,747
It isn't, but I am.
312
00:34:01,831 --> 00:34:03,500
What do you think of Conrad Morgan
313
00:34:03,667 --> 00:34:05,794
being named secretary of state
designate?
314
00:34:05,961 --> 00:34:07,587
Nothing' doesn't interest you, huh?
315
00:34:07,754 --> 00:34:11,591
I'm only interested in finding out
what you're not telling me.
316
00:34:13,343 --> 00:34:18,515
Who's going to tell who first
what he or she isn't telling?
317
00:34:21,226 --> 00:34:23,186
Maybe I'll tell you after dinner.
318
00:34:24,813 --> 00:34:26,565
Or maybe in the morning.
319
00:34:28,358 --> 00:34:29,985
How about the morning?
320
00:35:31,463 --> 00:35:34,090
Yeah. Bad dream?
321
00:35:50,106 --> 00:35:53,109
You don't sleep well, do you?
322
00:35:59,366 --> 00:36:01,076
Did I keep you awake?
323
00:36:04,287 --> 00:36:05,955
I'll make it up to you.
324
00:36:06,122 --> 00:36:07,749
You already have.
325
00:36:13,129 --> 00:36:15,340
How do you turn this goddamn thing off?
326
00:36:17,717 --> 00:36:19,260
Why does anyone
who doesn't sleep well
327
00:36:19,427 --> 00:36:22,347
have an alarm that sounds like big Ben
that can't be turned off?
328
00:36:25,392 --> 00:36:27,977
Where are you going? To run.
329
00:36:30,939 --> 00:36:32,357
I run too.
330
00:36:32,524 --> 00:36:34,234
Well, come along.
331
00:36:34,401 --> 00:36:38,405
Mmm, I think I had
sufficient exercise last night.
332
00:36:40,615 --> 00:36:43,368
Breakfast?
If you can find anything.
333
00:36:43,535 --> 00:36:46,413
Of course, you don't eat breakfast.
334
00:36:53,670 --> 00:36:56,089
I'll see you in exactly 27 minutes.
335
00:36:56,256 --> 00:37:01,010
When I get back,
we can talk about breakfast, maybe.
336
00:37:39,799 --> 00:37:44,471
Hey, Murray.
Why don't you get an honest job?
337
00:37:44,637 --> 00:37:46,973
What, and give up my cloak and dagger?
338
00:37:47,140 --> 00:37:48,600
John, I have to talk to you.
339
00:37:48,767 --> 00:37:50,810
Pull over. Gas is expensive.
340
00:38:03,698 --> 00:38:05,742
I know better than to ask
where you've been,
341
00:38:05,909 --> 00:38:08,286
but that cigar smells like pure Havana.
342
00:38:08,453 --> 00:38:09,913
Fringe benefits.
343
00:38:10,079 --> 00:38:11,956
John, what did you
and Marilyn talk about?
344
00:38:12,123 --> 00:38:14,083
Do I know her?
345
00:38:14,250 --> 00:38:17,003
The reporter who seems to have
more answers than questions.
346
00:38:17,170 --> 00:38:19,523
You wouldn't be talking about
a writer named Margaret, would you?
347
00:38:19,547 --> 00:38:21,424
She told me Marilyn.
348
00:38:21,591 --> 00:38:25,220
Next guy'll get Myrna or marilee.
She's obviously in the m's.
349
00:38:25,386 --> 00:38:26,763
Now, what did you tell her?
350
00:38:26,930 --> 00:38:30,308
I told her about a long walk I took
a couple of years ago.
351
00:38:30,475 --> 00:38:32,393
What did you tell her?
352
00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:35,730
Somebody told her more about
that mission than even you and I know.
353
00:38:35,897 --> 00:38:38,566
That scar is ugly, but it's healed.
354
00:38:38,733 --> 00:38:40,693
Well, it's about to be reopened.
355
00:38:42,987 --> 00:38:46,324
Operation sandstone.
I don't recall that one.
356
00:38:46,491 --> 00:38:48,660
There was no operation sandstone.
357
00:38:48,827 --> 00:38:50,662
You see that line with 'd.A.' On it?
358
00:38:50,829 --> 00:38:54,123
It means that sometime during
an operation which never happened,
359
00:38:54,290 --> 00:38:57,001
it was confirmed
that you were a double agent.
360
00:39:02,924 --> 00:39:04,634
There's a contract out on me.
Correct.
361
00:39:04,801 --> 00:39:05,801
Why?
362
00:39:05,844 --> 00:39:08,113
I suspect that reporter found out
something she shouldn't have.
363
00:39:08,137 --> 00:39:09,514
Now, what'd she tell you?
364
00:39:09,681 --> 00:39:11,724
She said someone
talked to her about the mission.
365
00:39:11,891 --> 00:39:13,268
I didn't want to hear about it.
366
00:39:13,434 --> 00:39:15,562
That's why ostriches die young.
367
00:39:15,728 --> 00:39:19,107
Whoever talked to her
has evidently decided to rectify his error.
368
00:39:19,274 --> 00:39:22,819
Well, who the hell can get into
this machine and put out a hit on me?
369
00:39:22,986 --> 00:39:26,573
Only the president, the secretaries,
370
00:39:26,739 --> 00:39:28,992
and a few under secretaries
of defense and state,
371
00:39:29,158 --> 00:39:32,120
the directors of the FBI, the CIA,
372
00:39:32,287 --> 00:39:34,914
the chairman
of the national security council,
373
00:39:35,081 --> 00:39:37,792
and the chairman
of the joint chiefs of staff.
374
00:39:37,959 --> 00:39:40,420
Thank god it's nobody important.
375
00:39:41,754 --> 00:39:44,257
Jesus, this is crazy.
376
00:39:44,424 --> 00:39:46,885
It's not just you, John.
377
00:39:48,469 --> 00:39:50,680
I had reason to check out
all five of those guys
378
00:39:50,847 --> 00:39:52,432
who came out of that jungle with you.
379
00:39:52,599 --> 00:39:54,934
Holly Washington is dead.
380
00:39:55,101 --> 00:39:58,146
I think Lou goldberg is too.
381
00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:01,733
Was it your people?
I don't know.
382
00:40:01,900 --> 00:40:03,484
Well, find out.
383
00:40:03,651 --> 00:40:08,031
Look, first I get a tip on Holly and Lou.
384
00:40:08,197 --> 00:40:10,950
Then I meet a girl who knows
more about that goddamn raid
385
00:40:11,117 --> 00:40:12,493
than anyone should.
386
00:40:12,660 --> 00:40:15,914
Then there's the fact that
I'm the one that sent you on it.
387
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:18,416
Now, it isn't on that computer,
but it's a goddamn good bet
388
00:40:18,583 --> 00:40:21,586
that my name is on that hit parade
along with the rest of the tigers.
389
00:40:21,753 --> 00:40:24,923
Can't you warn them? Protect them?
You can.
390
00:40:34,140 --> 00:40:36,392
Mhin Van thieu?
391
00:40:36,559 --> 00:40:38,770
What the hell is his name
doing on here?
392
00:40:40,313 --> 00:40:42,065
He was killed on that last raid.
393
00:40:42,231 --> 00:40:44,359
Evidently not.
394
00:40:44,525 --> 00:40:48,071
First listed as Mia, then pow,
395
00:40:50,281 --> 00:40:53,576
we obviously paid him off
by bringing him into this country.
396
00:40:53,743 --> 00:40:56,871
He's cooking for some Peking-style
restaurant in San Francisco,
397
00:40:57,038 --> 00:40:59,207
specialising in fried dumplings.
398
00:40:59,374 --> 00:41:04,128
That's great. What else do you know
that you may have forgotten to tell me?
399
00:41:06,172 --> 00:41:09,968
There is something,
but I just can't remember what it is.
400
00:41:10,134 --> 00:41:11,970
That helps a hell of a lot.
401
00:41:12,136 --> 00:41:14,555
Look, John,
there's a lot I can't help you with.
402
00:41:14,722 --> 00:41:17,225
The company has too many eyes.
403
00:41:17,392 --> 00:41:20,812
So you're gonna have to
warn those guys yourself.
404
00:41:22,063 --> 00:41:24,857
This is my life
you're screwing with, Murray.
405
00:41:25,024 --> 00:41:27,110
It's mine too, friend.
406
00:42:30,214 --> 00:42:32,675
Woman: Hello?
407
00:42:32,842 --> 00:42:35,094
Gordie Jones, please.
He's not home.
408
00:42:35,261 --> 00:42:38,973
Where is he?
At his uncle sheffield's travel town.
409
00:42:39,140 --> 00:42:40,516
Can I call him there?
410
00:42:40,683 --> 00:42:43,144
He ain't got no phone there.
411
00:42:43,311 --> 00:42:46,397
God, we don't owe you any money,
do we, mister?
412
00:42:47,774 --> 00:42:50,193
Look, you can find him at his uncle's.
413
00:43:01,412 --> 00:43:02,997
Newsreader: And in Washington,
414
00:43:03,164 --> 00:43:05,124
secretary of state designate
Conrad Morgan
415
00:43:05,291 --> 00:43:08,127
goes before his final senate
subcommittee hearing this morning.
416
00:43:08,294 --> 00:43:10,922
Morgan's approval by the committee
is virtually certain.
417
00:43:11,089 --> 00:43:12,632
At 41...
418
00:43:46,707 --> 00:43:49,293
Man: All aboard!
419
00:44:15,528 --> 00:44:16,904
Hey, gordie!
420
00:44:17,071 --> 00:44:20,408
Hey, Sammy! How ya doin'?
Not much business today, eh?
421
00:44:20,575 --> 00:44:23,494
You doin' any?
No, business isn't too good.
422
00:44:23,661 --> 00:44:26,289
It's major booker, gordie.
John t. Booker.
423
00:44:26,455 --> 00:44:29,542
I thought you were Sammy.
You look just like Sammy.
424
00:44:29,709 --> 00:44:32,712
Has anyone been to see you
in the last few days?
425
00:44:32,879 --> 00:44:35,256
Has anyone asked you about
that last mission?
426
00:44:35,423 --> 00:44:37,884
What I wish we had is pelicans
instead of seagulls.
427
00:44:38,050 --> 00:44:39,810
Who asked you about
the last mission, gordie?
428
00:44:39,927 --> 00:44:43,389
Just yesterday. A lady. Maybe today.
I told her about the pelicans.
429
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:53,816
Who the hell are you?
430
00:44:53,983 --> 00:44:55,818
That's the lady, major.
431
00:45:07,622 --> 00:45:09,540
Margaret: Where are we going?
John: Skiing.
432
00:45:09,707 --> 00:45:11,626
Maybe we can get to Mike Potter
before they do.
433
00:45:11,792 --> 00:45:13,252
But I've got a rental car.
434
00:45:13,419 --> 00:45:15,421
You're on an expense account.
Don't worry.
435
00:45:15,588 --> 00:45:18,841
I don't have any ski clothes!
We'll get something.
436
00:45:32,855 --> 00:45:35,566
Want some?
No, thanks. Is it occupied?
437
00:46:08,182 --> 00:46:09,558
Go to the bathroom.
438
00:46:09,725 --> 00:46:12,144
Number one or number two?
439
00:46:12,311 --> 00:46:16,607
The window seat, last row,
left side as you go down the aisle.
440
00:46:16,774 --> 00:46:18,150
An oriental.
441
00:46:18,317 --> 00:46:19,860
See if you recognise him.
442
00:46:56,522 --> 00:46:58,566
Looks like a waiter
in a Chinese restaurant
443
00:46:58,733 --> 00:47:00,318
I used to frequent in des moines.
444
00:47:00,484 --> 00:47:03,195
I'll bet Chinese food in des moines
is something to remember.
445
00:47:03,362 --> 00:47:06,407
Is he following us?
I'm not sure yet.
446
00:47:06,574 --> 00:47:10,411
Maybe it's that waiter. I don't think
I tipped him last time I was there.
447
00:47:11,704 --> 00:47:14,373
Who did you talk to at that
cocktail party in Washington?
448
00:47:15,875 --> 00:47:20,129
Please don't ask.
I'm almost certain I'll lie.
449
00:47:51,577 --> 00:47:53,120
Make a call.
450
00:47:54,497 --> 00:47:56,415
There's another one.
451
00:48:57,268 --> 00:48:59,228
When you're silent, you're silent.
452
00:48:59,395 --> 00:49:02,064
What are you thinking about?
453
00:49:02,231 --> 00:49:04,150
Old friends.
454
00:49:04,316 --> 00:49:06,735
Mhin.
455
00:49:06,902 --> 00:49:10,156
That guy on the plane was mhin.
456
00:49:11,866 --> 00:49:13,617
Major mhin Van thieu?
457
00:49:15,035 --> 00:49:16,412
Another black tiger.
458
00:49:16,579 --> 00:49:21,041
What don't you know?
What did you talk to him about?
459
00:49:21,208 --> 00:49:23,878
I never said a word to him in my life.
460
00:49:24,044 --> 00:49:25,880
What about Murray Saunders?
461
00:49:26,046 --> 00:49:28,424
I don't know any Murray Saunders.
462
00:49:28,591 --> 00:49:30,509
You were someone named Marilyn.
463
00:49:33,179 --> 00:49:34,555
That Murray Saunders.
464
00:49:34,722 --> 00:49:36,891
What did he tell you? Nothing.
465
00:50:08,839 --> 00:50:10,633
Good evening. You got here just in time.
466
00:50:10,799 --> 00:50:13,302
For what?
The snow is melting fast.
467
00:50:13,469 --> 00:50:15,554
Is Mike Potter in? He's on the ski patrol.
468
00:50:15,721 --> 00:50:18,766
Mike? No. Try his house.
I'll dial it for you.
469
00:50:20,267 --> 00:50:22,186
Do you want to take it over there?
470
00:50:40,496 --> 00:50:41,496
He's not in.
471
00:50:41,539 --> 00:50:43,666
Tomorrow's his day off.
He's jump-crazy.
472
00:50:43,832 --> 00:50:45,918
He'll be on the jump
first thing in the morning.
473
00:50:47,586 --> 00:50:49,296
We better spend the night.
474
00:50:50,381 --> 00:50:52,341
Do you have a room?
Yeah, I think so.
475
00:50:52,508 --> 00:50:54,468
Do you want to fill this out?
476
00:51:05,813 --> 00:51:08,023
To what extent
are we speaking to each other?
477
00:51:08,190 --> 00:51:10,901
What do you want to talk about?
478
00:51:11,068 --> 00:51:13,737
Well, I was wondering, for instance,
if we're speaking enough
479
00:51:13,904 --> 00:51:15,990
to share the only bed in the room.
480
00:51:16,156 --> 00:51:18,826
Sure, we can share the bed.
481
00:51:36,594 --> 00:51:38,721
Any enemies out there?
482
00:51:38,887 --> 00:51:41,056
I'm just as worried
about the enemy within.
483
00:51:42,516 --> 00:51:45,144
Are you an enemy, Margaret? No.
484
00:51:45,311 --> 00:51:48,022
You just happened to be there
when gordie was killed today.
485
00:51:48,188 --> 00:51:50,399
Were you there when
Lou and Holly got it too?
486
00:51:54,528 --> 00:51:57,323
Are you some kind of finger-man
for whoever's doing this?
487
00:52:04,538 --> 00:52:06,332
Finger-person.
488
00:52:12,338 --> 00:52:14,548
John, I haven't lied to you.
489
00:52:14,715 --> 00:52:16,508
Including last night?
490
00:52:16,675 --> 00:52:19,428
Especially last night.
491
00:52:20,638 --> 00:52:22,973
You fit in somewhere.
492
00:52:29,855 --> 00:52:31,398
So do you.
493
00:52:33,317 --> 00:52:35,653
Mr Morgan, I want to thank you
for the cooperation
494
00:52:35,819 --> 00:52:38,530
you're affording this committee
by your appearance here today.
495
00:52:38,697 --> 00:52:40,449
Thank you, senator.
496
00:52:40,616 --> 00:52:43,410
Andl want to assure you
and the other members of the committee
497
00:52:43,577 --> 00:52:47,206
that I fully understand the necessity
for hearings such as these.
498
00:52:47,373 --> 00:52:51,085
And I want you all to feel free
to probe into any areas at all
499
00:52:51,251 --> 00:52:52,961
that might be of interest to you.
500
00:52:53,128 --> 00:52:55,464
I'm sure I can speak
for the entire committee
501
00:52:55,631 --> 00:52:59,343
when I say, sir, that such an attitude
is deeply appreciated.
502
00:52:59,510 --> 00:53:00,928
Because we've had to deal with...
503
00:53:01,095 --> 00:53:03,055
Think he'll make it? Morgan?
504
00:53:03,222 --> 00:53:05,182
Yeah. Oh, yes.
505
00:53:05,349 --> 00:53:07,643
He's the new darling of Washington.
506
00:53:07,810 --> 00:53:09,561
Senator: I'm sure you have.
507
00:53:09,728 --> 00:53:13,232
The attitude of the nation today
is far different from what it was
508
00:53:13,399 --> 00:53:14,900
in those earty days before Vietnam.
509
00:53:15,067 --> 00:53:18,612
I think the American public today
is far less eager...
510
00:53:18,779 --> 00:53:20,322
We'd better get going.
511
00:53:56,191 --> 00:53:58,318
Man on P.A.: Good morning,
iadies and gentiernen,
512
00:53:58,485 --> 00:54:00,028
and welcome to squaw valley, usa.
513
00:54:00,195 --> 00:54:04,032
After being seiected as the site
of the 1960 winter olympic games,
514
00:54:04,199 --> 00:54:06,368
the entire squaw valley complex
515
00:54:06,535 --> 00:54:08,787
was developed into one of
the world's greatest ski areas
516
00:54:08,954 --> 00:54:11,457
at a cost of over $25 million.
517
00:54:11,623 --> 00:54:14,251
We are now standing
in the lower terminal
518
00:54:14,418 --> 00:54:17,421
of one of the world's most spectacular
aerial tramways.
519
00:54:17,588 --> 00:54:22,342
The terminal alone cost
over 3.5 million 1960 dollars.
520
00:55:23,529 --> 00:55:26,156
What snow we had this year
is now melting rapidly.
521
00:55:26,323 --> 00:55:28,158
So as we approach the top station,
522
00:55:28,325 --> 00:55:30,702
we advise you to
hurry out to the slopes
523
00:55:30,869 --> 00:55:32,287
and make the most of what's left.
524
00:55:32,454 --> 00:55:34,498
On behalf of squaw valley, usa,
525
00:55:34,665 --> 00:55:37,835
I 'd like to thank you for joining us,
and have a happy day.
526
00:56:30,178 --> 00:56:31,555
I'm looking for Mike Potter.
527
00:56:31,722 --> 00:56:34,266
You got him.
528
00:56:35,684 --> 00:56:37,561
Major?
529
00:56:38,604 --> 00:56:41,189
What the hell are you doing up here?
Didn't you get my message?
530
00:56:41,356 --> 00:56:43,859
You mean the code red?
I thought that was a gag.
531
00:56:44,026 --> 00:56:45,986
Alright, Mike, you're up.
532
00:56:46,153 --> 00:56:47,905
Let's go in the shack.
We've gotta talk.
533
00:56:50,365 --> 00:56:53,327
Meet me at the bottom.
Bring these with you.
534
00:56:53,493 --> 00:56:55,662
Mike, wait.
535
00:56:55,829 --> 00:56:56,872
Mike!
536
00:57:14,765 --> 00:57:15,807
Oh, Jesus!
537
01:00:04,559 --> 01:00:07,020
Jesus Christ, I thought
I'd never find you.
538
01:00:07,187 --> 01:00:09,606
There were cops
all over the place up there.
539
01:00:09,773 --> 01:00:12,067
I've got your clothes.
You can change in the car.
540
01:00:12,234 --> 01:00:14,861
Are you alright?
541
01:00:16,321 --> 01:00:19,658
It was mhin, wasn't it?
The woman he met at the airport.
542
01:00:21,034 --> 01:00:22,619
I'm sorry about Mike.
543
01:00:22,786 --> 01:00:25,080
Yeah, but there you were,
right on the scene again.
544
01:00:25,247 --> 01:00:28,500
I'm not the enemy, John.
I told you that last night.
545
01:00:30,168 --> 01:00:32,963
I think we better talk. Tell me!
546
01:00:39,094 --> 01:00:40,679
Edgar harolds.
547
01:00:40,846 --> 01:00:45,100
Childhood sweetheart?
A drunk at a cocktail party.
548
01:00:45,267 --> 01:00:47,394
Who is he?
Under secretary of state.
549
01:00:47,561 --> 01:00:50,772
A career man at the end of his career,
maybe the end of his rope.
550
01:00:50,939 --> 01:00:52,858
Goddamn it, who are you?
551
01:00:53,024 --> 01:00:56,361
Edgar harolds worked for
Conrad Morgan during the Vietnam war
552
01:00:56,528 --> 01:00:58,280
and he hates his guts.
553
01:00:58,446 --> 01:01:00,448
Morgan on the TV?
554
01:01:00,615 --> 01:01:02,576
The senate does more
than question a man
555
01:01:02,742 --> 01:01:04,302
who's nominated for secretary of state.
556
01:01:04,327 --> 01:01:07,372
Before Watergate,
it was generally a formality.
557
01:01:07,539 --> 01:01:12,544
Now, they do a pretty thorough job of it.
They even hire attorneys to investigate.
558
01:01:12,711 --> 01:01:16,381
What does that have to do with you?
It's actually pretty funny.
559
01:01:16,548 --> 01:01:20,427
I was invited to a cocktail party
by the head of the committee.
560
01:01:20,594 --> 01:01:23,555
Just a social event.
I had barely started to work for him.
561
01:01:23,722 --> 01:01:26,558
You're a lawyer? An investigator?
562
01:01:26,725 --> 01:01:28,101
I'd been standing for hours
563
01:01:28,268 --> 01:01:31,229
when I noticed this man
sitting all alone at a table.
564
01:01:31,396 --> 01:01:33,815
He looked pleasantly drunk
and harmless.
565
01:01:35,859 --> 01:01:38,069
Is Morgan mixed up in this?
I don't know.
566
01:01:38,236 --> 01:01:41,156
Harolds never mentioned his name,
but it seems to me there's a connection.
567
01:01:41,198 --> 01:01:43,238
The papers keep saying
that his approval is assured.
568
01:01:43,283 --> 01:01:45,035
How can that be
if you told the committee...
569
01:01:45,202 --> 01:01:47,162
I never told the committee anything!
570
01:01:47,329 --> 01:01:49,164
You don't survive in Washington
571
01:01:49,331 --> 01:01:52,125
by attacking men like Morgan
without substantial facts.
572
01:01:52,292 --> 01:01:55,629
I simply said I wanted to follow up
on some leads and they said, “go.”
573
01:01:55,795 --> 01:01:57,315
So the committee
knows nothing about this?
574
01:01:57,339 --> 01:01:59,466
Not yet. That's why we're
taking the first plane east.
575
01:02:00,759 --> 01:02:03,386
That could take days.
I have to get to Joe Walker in Mexico.
576
01:02:03,553 --> 01:02:05,764
He's the only man left.
You're left.
577
01:02:05,931 --> 01:02:08,308
And I want you to stay alive,
578
01:02:08,475 --> 01:02:11,269
for personal reasons.
579
01:02:12,979 --> 01:02:14,564
Do you believe me now?
580
01:02:23,740 --> 01:02:25,408
Woman on P.A.:
Your attention, please.
581
01:02:25,575 --> 01:02:30,372
Will all passengers holding tickets
for lntermountain flight 184
582
01:02:30,538 --> 01:02:34,292
please contact the agent
at the lntermountain ticket counter.
583
01:02:38,588 --> 01:02:42,259
Is there any space on 322
to San Francisco and Washington?
584
01:02:42,425 --> 01:02:44,594
Yes, ma'am. Round trip or one-way?
585
01:02:44,761 --> 01:02:46,304
One way. Round trip.
586
01:02:47,347 --> 01:02:49,182
You'll need it, back to la.
587
01:02:52,852 --> 01:02:55,689
Make mine one-way to la, please.
Next flight out.
588
01:02:59,985 --> 01:03:05,323
Finai caii — fright 2
now boarding at gate number 21.
589
01:03:14,165 --> 01:03:16,751
How about a farewell cup of coffee?
Why not?
590
01:03:16,918 --> 01:03:19,004
You better hurry.
They're beginning to board.
591
01:03:19,170 --> 01:03:22,215
Flight 300 from San Francisco...
Have a good flight.
592
01:03:22,382 --> 01:03:24,592
Now arriving at gate 10.
593
01:03:49,784 --> 01:03:52,912
I'll do my damnedest
to get them to delay the confirmation
594
01:03:53,079 --> 01:03:56,207
but I'm gonna need you there to stop it,
if harolds'll talk.
595
01:03:56,374 --> 01:03:58,585
I'll be there day after tomorrow.
596
01:03:58,752 --> 01:04:02,589
Flight 62, now boarding at gate 21.
597
01:04:02,756 --> 01:04:04,466
That's me.
598
01:04:04,632 --> 01:04:07,135
You gonna wave goodbye?
I have to turn in the rental car.
599
01:04:07,302 --> 01:04:10,388
Oh, god, I left one
with the meter running in San Diego!
600
01:04:10,555 --> 01:04:11,931
The committee will love you.
601
01:04:12,098 --> 01:04:14,267
They can ask for a bigger
car rental budget next year.
602
01:04:14,434 --> 01:04:16,186
Don't worry about us taxpayers.
603
01:04:16,353 --> 01:04:17,896
'Bye.
604
01:05:10,115 --> 01:05:13,618
Collect call, please. John t. Booker
calling Murray Saunders.
605
01:06:10,925 --> 01:06:12,844
Man on pa:
The emergency over the runway
606
01:06:13,011 --> 01:06:14,888
is causing no danger
to the terminal area.
607
01:06:17,140 --> 01:06:19,225
All persons in the terminal area
608
01:06:19,392 --> 01:06:22,061
are asked to clear all gates
and entrances to the field
609
01:06:22,228 --> 01:06:23,747
so that emergency workers
and equipment...
610
01:06:23,771 --> 01:06:25,315
Hey there! Hold it!
611
01:06:27,108 --> 01:06:29,428
Obey the commands of the airport guards
and police officers
612
01:06:29,527 --> 01:06:33,281
so that rescue workers may perform
their duties as efficiently as possible.
613
01:06:33,448 --> 01:06:37,160
I repeat, there is no danger
to the terminal area.
614
01:06:37,327 --> 01:06:39,537
Thank you for your cooperation.
615
01:07:15,615 --> 01:07:18,034
What are you doing with that gun?
616
01:08:40,408 --> 01:08:43,328
Jesus Christ,
I should have figured it out.
617
01:08:49,167 --> 01:08:51,502
It was a set-up all the way.
618
01:08:53,087 --> 01:08:56,090
That's what harolds
was trying to tell Margaret.
619
01:09:00,011 --> 01:09:02,263
John, are you ok?
620
01:09:02,430 --> 01:09:05,642
Yeah, thanks.
621
01:09:05,808 --> 01:09:08,394
She wanted me to talk to him
and get the proof we need.
622
01:09:08,561 --> 01:09:11,272
I think our next stop is Washington.
623
01:09:11,439 --> 01:09:12,958
Are you sure you've
got Walker covered?
624
01:09:12,982 --> 01:09:17,403
I still can't figure out why they
suddenly decide to kill us all off.
625
01:09:17,570 --> 01:09:21,032
Maybe Morgan found out
that harolds was about to crack.
626
01:09:21,199 --> 01:09:23,034
Why didn't he arrange
an accident for harolds?
627
01:09:23,201 --> 01:09:25,703
Five'll get you ten
there's a damn good reason he didn't.
628
01:09:25,870 --> 01:09:27,872
Let's go ask him.
629
01:09:41,219 --> 01:09:42,637
Morning.
630
01:09:42,804 --> 01:09:44,681
May I help you, gentlemen?
631
01:09:44,847 --> 01:09:46,516
Yes, mr harolds' apartment, please.
632
01:09:46,683 --> 01:09:50,103
May I have your name?
We want to surprise him.
633
01:09:50,269 --> 01:09:52,814
I'm afraid we're not allowed
to surprise our tenants.
634
01:09:54,774 --> 01:09:56,901
Even if you were
j. Edgar hoover himself,
635
01:09:57,068 --> 01:09:58,861
I couldn't allow you upstairs.
636
01:09:59,028 --> 01:10:01,906
It's not likely he could be mr hoover
if he wanted to.
637
01:10:02,073 --> 01:10:05,451
Not only is he the wrong colour,
but mr hoover is dead.
638
01:10:05,618 --> 01:10:07,829
I'm sure you get my meaning.
639
01:10:07,995 --> 01:10:09,497
Oh, yes, we do.
640
01:10:09,664 --> 01:10:11,749
We want to make sure
you get what we mean.
641
01:10:11,916 --> 01:10:14,877
You see, my friend here is very cranky.
642
01:10:15,044 --> 01:10:18,131
In fact, I'd say he's
on the very edge of anger.
643
01:10:19,173 --> 01:10:23,052
And in about five seconds,
I'm gonna ask him to kick your teeth in
644
01:10:23,219 --> 01:10:26,556
if you don't show us the way
to mr harolds' apartment.
645
01:10:31,227 --> 01:10:33,646
Very well. Follow me.
646
01:10:35,857 --> 01:10:37,692
He must have good teeth.
647
01:10:46,117 --> 01:10:47,493
Remember what happened
648
01:10:47,660 --> 01:10:51,080
the last time a Washington apartment
was broken into for political reasons.
649
01:10:51,247 --> 01:10:54,167
No, think about it.
It altered the course of history.
650
01:10:54,333 --> 01:10:56,502
My friend here is gonna alter
the course of your nose
651
01:10:56,669 --> 01:10:58,463
if you don't show us
where the apartment is.
652
01:10:58,629 --> 01:11:00,631
Of course, if you put it
in that perspective...
653
01:11:00,798 --> 01:11:02,383
Now. Now!
654
01:11:06,637 --> 01:11:08,097
There it is.
655
01:11:08,264 --> 01:11:12,518
Should we ring the buzzer or kick it in?
No, I'll ring the bell.
656
01:11:18,941 --> 01:11:20,318
Man: Yes?
657
01:11:20,485 --> 01:11:23,654
Tell him it's you.
It's me, mr harolds.
658
01:11:23,821 --> 01:11:27,700
Who? Louder. Be more specific.
659
01:11:27,867 --> 01:11:31,454
Albert. Albert, the doorman.
660
01:11:31,621 --> 01:11:33,831
What do you want?
661
01:11:33,998 --> 01:11:37,502
Package. I've got a package.
662
01:11:47,094 --> 01:11:51,599
It's alright, Albert.
Thank you. You've been quite civilised.
663
01:11:55,228 --> 01:11:56,854
Good morning, mr harolds.
664
01:11:57,021 --> 01:12:00,274
“My vengeance is swift, saith the lord.”
665
01:12:00,441 --> 01:12:04,570
I expected it to be swift and very violent.
666
01:12:05,780 --> 01:12:07,657
I haven't been disappointed.
667
01:12:07,824 --> 01:12:12,703
Since the day you walked
out of that hotel room in Paris,
668
01:12:12,870 --> 01:12:15,414
I've been wondering
if I might not see you again.
669
01:12:16,499 --> 01:12:21,504
The fact that you are here now
is testimony to your powers of survival.
670
01:12:21,671 --> 01:12:23,881
Well, the test is not over yet.
671
01:12:24,048 --> 01:12:26,384
I'd like you to meet John booker.
672
01:12:26,551 --> 01:12:30,346
Oh, major booker,
the Shepherd of the betrayed flock.
673
01:12:30,513 --> 01:12:32,139
That's what we're here
to talk about.
674
01:12:32,306 --> 01:12:37,186
Well, normally, I'd do what I've done
all the years I've served my country
675
01:12:37,353 --> 01:12:39,939
and feed you a line of shit.
676
01:12:41,732 --> 01:12:43,484
But I don't think I'll bother.
677
01:12:43,651 --> 01:12:46,320
Perhaps you're doing me a favour.
678
01:12:48,823 --> 01:12:51,576
No, major, there's no-one else here.
679
01:12:52,827 --> 01:12:55,413
My wife and children
had the good sense
680
01:12:55,580 --> 01:12:58,124
to go on about their own lives years ago.
681
01:12:59,208 --> 01:13:00,710
Do you have a family, major?
682
01:13:00,877 --> 01:13:03,212
I had plans, but they didn't work out.
683
01:13:03,379 --> 01:13:08,467
Well, then perhaps you're fortunate.
684
01:13:12,513 --> 01:13:16,726
So this is what I get
for having too much to drink
685
01:13:16,893 --> 01:13:19,896
and finding a receptive ear.
686
01:13:21,188 --> 01:13:25,151
Can you imagine a career diplomat
getting drunk and babbling
687
01:13:25,318 --> 01:13:27,403
at a Washington cocktail party?
688
01:13:27,570 --> 01:13:32,700
You don't get to be an old-timer here
without learning not to do that,
689
01:13:32,867 --> 01:13:35,620
unless you're over the hill.
690
01:13:37,663 --> 01:13:40,917
An interesting phrase, 'over the hill'.
691
01:13:41,083 --> 01:13:46,297
Conrad has been telling me for years
that's where I am.
692
01:13:46,464 --> 01:13:49,216
He's a brilliant man, Conrad.
693
01:13:49,383 --> 01:13:53,512
Most of us think we know
what we want out of life.
694
01:13:53,679 --> 01:13:58,809
But Conrad is one of those few
who knows how to get it.
695
01:13:58,976 --> 01:14:03,564
Of course, he learned immediately
of my drunken indiscretion.
696
01:14:03,731 --> 01:14:09,362
The captured indiscreet remark
is a source of power in Washington,
697
01:14:09,528 --> 01:14:12,281
a lesson Conrad learned stroll.
698
01:14:13,741 --> 01:14:17,370
I may have been the one
who first taught him that.
699
01:14:17,536 --> 01:14:20,247
Perhaps I am over the hill.
700
01:14:21,707 --> 01:14:25,962
And she is a brilliant young woman,
quite lovely.
701
01:14:27,046 --> 01:14:31,926
There was something about her.
I... I just wanted to talk to her.
702
01:14:32,093 --> 01:14:35,638
But, of course,
you must know that by now, major.
703
01:14:36,681 --> 01:14:40,142
Your being the leader
of the black tigers,
704
01:14:40,309 --> 01:14:43,771
I assume she must have
gone directly to you.
705
01:14:43,938 --> 01:14:46,190
Of course, Morgan assumed
the same thing.
706
01:14:46,357 --> 01:14:50,653
His efforts to find out
just how much you knew
707
01:14:50,820 --> 01:14:54,657
and whom you might have told
have probably kept you alive.
708
01:14:54,824 --> 01:14:56,784
Four of the men
who came back with me
709
01:14:56,951 --> 01:14:58,494
weren't as lucky.
710
01:15:00,579 --> 01:15:03,749
My condolences, of course,
will seem meaningless.
711
01:15:05,251 --> 01:15:08,212
I was there in the beginning
712
01:15:08,379 --> 01:15:11,716
when they invented
the Phoenix operation.
713
01:15:11,882 --> 01:15:15,845
Do you know what everyone
was most upset about?
714
01:15:16,012 --> 01:15:21,225
Oh, not the idea that we were
consciously structuring a group of men
715
01:15:21,392 --> 01:15:25,062
whose purpose was
the clandestine murder of other men.
716
01:15:25,229 --> 01:15:30,860
Not the moral ramifications
that might befall us in another life
717
01:15:31,027 --> 01:15:35,281
for the decision
based on political expediency.
718
01:15:35,448 --> 01:15:36,824
Oh, no.
719
01:15:36,991 --> 01:15:41,037
What we got most embroiled in
was an argument over
720
01:15:41,203 --> 01:15:46,917
what a particular group of assassins —
That we decided to call the black tigers...
721
01:15:47,084 --> 01:15:50,046
What that group of assassins would wear
722
01:15:50,212 --> 01:15:55,009
when they went out to relieve
selected individuals of their very lives.
723
01:15:56,052 --> 01:15:59,972
Finally, after a great deal
of bitter argument,
724
01:16:00,139 --> 01:16:05,144
we determined to dress
the black tigers in all black.
725
01:16:05,311 --> 01:16:10,232
The commission was then paid to a
noted designer, who shall be nameless,
726
01:16:10,399 --> 01:16:15,905
who designed the black clothing
the black tigers wore as they rolled out
727
01:16:16,072 --> 01:16:18,032
on their holy crusades.
728
01:16:18,199 --> 01:16:20,826
You made quite a reputation
for yourselves.
729
01:16:23,788 --> 01:16:27,249
Mr Morgan? Mr harolds
has some visitors.
730
01:16:28,501 --> 01:16:30,086
No, sir, I'm not sure,
731
01:16:30,252 --> 01:16:33,422
but I think one of them is Murray
Saunders from the Los Angeles office.
732
01:16:35,216 --> 01:16:36,759
You want them stopped?
733
01:16:37,968 --> 01:16:40,304
Right, and a man on harolds.
You've got it.
734
01:16:44,725 --> 01:16:46,102
We were set up.
735
01:16:46,268 --> 01:16:48,020
Oh, yes.
736
01:16:48,187 --> 01:16:49,897
What was the deal?
737
01:16:50,064 --> 01:16:55,361
When I was a younger man, I knew
I was going to be secretary of state
738
01:16:55,528 --> 01:16:57,363
or perhaps even president.
739
01:16:57,530 --> 01:17:00,491
If I tell you the answer to that question,
740
01:17:00,658 --> 01:17:06,664
I may not even be afforded
the opportunity to retire next year
741
01:17:06,831 --> 01:17:09,917
with a modicum of dignity left to me.
742
01:17:14,171 --> 01:17:19,927
But then, I suppose your life
is not nearly so inconsequential to you
743
01:17:20,094 --> 01:17:24,181
as it is to mr Morgan, or even to me.
744
01:17:28,394 --> 01:17:29,937
Well...
745
01:17:30,980 --> 01:17:34,900
I hope this letter's the answer.
It's the best shot we've got.
746
01:18:01,719 --> 01:18:04,096
Ok, Saunders. I want that letter.
747
01:18:14,607 --> 01:18:15,983
Listen, ai.
748
01:18:16,150 --> 01:18:19,570
Somebody got into that computer
and this letter proves it.
749
01:18:19,737 --> 01:18:21,363
The letter, Murray.
750
01:18:24,325 --> 01:18:26,160
Come on, come on, come on!
751
01:18:32,625 --> 01:18:34,835
Get the letter. I'll cover you.
Ok. Watch out!
752
01:19:14,625 --> 01:19:17,336
Enjoy the fight? Terrific.
753
01:20:06,593 --> 01:20:08,220
Here it is.
754
01:20:09,263 --> 01:20:11,223
Why would this guy live
halfway to Baltimore?
755
01:20:11,390 --> 01:20:14,393
Who knows? Maybe it has
something to do with spiro agnew.
756
01:20:14,560 --> 01:20:18,022
It wasn't very hard
to get an appointment with the big man.
757
01:20:18,188 --> 01:20:21,275
Morgan's very interested
in what he thinks we might have to sell.
758
01:20:32,161 --> 01:20:34,455
Ah, good morning, Saunders.
Good morning, Morgan.
759
01:20:34,621 --> 01:20:36,999
I don't believe I've had the pleasure.
760
01:20:37,166 --> 01:20:39,668
A gentleman whom I'm sure
will add to our discussion.
761
01:20:39,835 --> 01:20:41,795
I see.
762
01:20:47,343 --> 01:20:48,927
John t. Booker.
763
01:20:54,058 --> 01:20:56,602
Well, Saunders, I trust
this rather unusual meeting
764
01:20:56,769 --> 01:20:58,645
is as important as you indicated.
765
01:20:58,812 --> 01:21:02,524
Something, I believe you said, to do with
our last rather unusual meeting
766
01:21:04,401 --> 01:21:08,072
something, yes.
But with one notable addition.
767
01:21:09,114 --> 01:21:10,491
Coffee? No, thanks.
768
01:21:10,657 --> 01:21:12,034
Can we get on with it?
769
01:21:12,201 --> 01:21:15,037
As you may have heard,
I have a rather busy day ahead of me.
770
01:21:15,204 --> 01:21:17,581
You made a secret deal in Paris
with kuong yen,
771
01:21:17,748 --> 01:21:19,124
the north Vietnamese negotiator.
772
01:21:19,291 --> 01:21:21,418
Secret deals are
the heart of diplomacy, mr booker.
773
01:21:21,585 --> 01:21:24,338
This deal called for
the murder of the black tigers.
774
01:21:24,505 --> 01:21:26,465
Murder, mr booker?
775
01:21:26,632 --> 01:21:30,719
One other American knows about it
and he talked.
776
01:21:33,263 --> 01:21:34,640
At first, I couldn't figure out
777
01:21:34,807 --> 01:21:37,476
why you didn't try to kill harolds
along with the rest of us.
778
01:21:37,643 --> 01:21:39,520
He told me.
779
01:21:39,686 --> 01:21:42,439
He sent a registered letter
to four lawyers,
780
01:21:42,606 --> 01:21:44,191
none of whom you know.
781
01:21:44,358 --> 01:21:49,071
The letters were to be opened
in the event of his untimely death.
782
01:21:49,238 --> 01:21:51,490
Early Agatha christie.
783
01:21:51,657 --> 01:21:53,117
And just as effective.
784
01:21:53,283 --> 01:21:55,702
The letters explain what was known
between you and kuong yen
785
01:21:55,869 --> 01:21:57,246
as the Phoenix solution.
786
01:21:57,413 --> 01:22:01,458
I couldn't figure out what major mhin
was doing popping in and out of my life.
787
01:22:01,625 --> 01:22:04,336
At first, I assumed he worked for them,
whoever 'they' were.
788
01:22:04,503 --> 01:22:09,550
But of course, 'they' are you,
and you are all one.
789
01:22:09,716 --> 01:22:13,804
Oh, I see. “We have met the enemy
and they is us.”
790
01:22:13,971 --> 01:22:15,973
Comic-strip philosophy, mr booker.
791
01:22:16,140 --> 01:22:18,725
Agreed, and now kuong yen
is manipulating you
792
01:22:18,892 --> 01:22:21,186
like the comic-strip diplomat you are.
793
01:22:21,353 --> 01:22:24,940
He waited patiently until the moment
of your greatest vulnerability,
794
01:22:25,107 --> 01:22:28,402
the Eve of your confirmation
as secretary of state.
795
01:22:28,569 --> 01:22:32,865
And now he's blackmailing you into
completing the deal you never finished...
796
01:22:34,533 --> 01:22:36,869
The extermination of the black tigers.
797
01:22:37,035 --> 01:22:40,581
Well, they are very unforgiving people.
798
01:22:40,747 --> 01:22:42,374
Toward you or the black tigers?
799
01:22:42,541 --> 01:22:46,795
Toward us, Mr. Booker. 'We' is us.
Perhaps.
800
01:22:58,140 --> 01:22:59,766
Interesting document.
801
01:23:05,272 --> 01:23:07,941
Morgan, you're gonna pick up that
phone and call the white house.
802
01:23:08,108 --> 01:23:10,903
Sudden personal problems
are going to prevent you
803
01:23:11,069 --> 01:23:13,906
from accepting the nomination
as secretary of state.
804
01:23:15,282 --> 01:23:20,662
If you don't, the news media is gonna
have one hell of a time with that letter.
805
01:23:20,829 --> 01:23:24,875
I understand, major booker,
that you were quite a jungle fighter.
806
01:23:25,042 --> 01:23:27,836
This is my kind ofjungle, major.
807
01:23:29,922 --> 01:23:33,175
No. No, I...
808
01:23:33,342 --> 01:23:36,803
I just don't think it would be expedient
for me to resign at this time.
809
01:23:36,970 --> 01:23:38,347
Expedient?!
810
01:23:38,514 --> 01:23:41,850
Just like it was expedient
to send us on that pow raid?
811
01:23:42,017 --> 01:23:45,312
Expedience built this country,
major booker.
812
01:23:45,479 --> 01:23:48,732
It was expedient for
this great democracy
813
01:23:48,899 --> 01:23:51,610
to have legal slavery
for half its existence.
814
01:23:51,777 --> 01:23:55,906
And it was expedient to keep the vote
from women for 150 years.
815
01:23:56,073 --> 01:24:00,160
Expedient to declare war on Spain
and Mexico and to invade Cambodia.
816
01:24:00,327 --> 01:24:05,290
From the halls of montezuma,
major booker, to the shores of Tripoli.
817
01:24:05,457 --> 01:24:08,502
And it was expedient, goddamn it,
to get rid of the black tigers.
818
01:24:09,628 --> 01:24:11,922
The end still justifies the means.
819
01:24:12,089 --> 01:24:14,007
I don't buy that.
820
01:24:14,174 --> 01:24:17,219
It occurs to me that most of those
who follow your logic
821
01:24:17,386 --> 01:24:19,846
end up in places like
elba and San clemente.
822
01:24:20,013 --> 01:24:23,141
Come, now...
Check your history, Morgan.
823
01:24:23,308 --> 01:24:26,645
Most of our expedient wars
ended up in failure.
824
01:24:26,812 --> 01:24:29,815
Our successes didn't just happen
because they were expedient.
825
01:24:29,982 --> 01:24:32,818
Those Americans you spoke of
gave up their lives willingly.
826
01:24:32,985 --> 01:24:34,820
Does that really make
such a difference?
827
01:24:34,987 --> 01:24:38,282
It makes all the goddamn difference,
Morgan.
828
01:24:38,448 --> 01:24:43,328
People like you never could see that
and maybe they never will.
829
01:24:45,289 --> 01:24:48,542
It's not that you don't deserve
to be secretary of state.
830
01:24:48,709 --> 01:24:51,837
You don't deserve to live.
831
01:24:52,004 --> 01:24:56,091
Well, now, that's
an interesting philosophy, but...
832
01:24:56,258 --> 01:25:00,387
But philosophy is bullshit, right, Morgan?
833
01:25:02,014 --> 01:25:04,099
Well, that letter isn't.
834
01:25:05,726 --> 01:25:07,227
I tell you what.
835
01:25:07,394 --> 01:25:11,815
You take this letter over to the
'Washington post' with my best regards.
836
01:25:11,982 --> 01:25:14,982
But you tell them they're gonna have
a hard time verifying that with harolds
837
01:25:15,068 --> 01:25:19,781
because visitors are not allowed in
the Bethesda hospital psychiatric ward.
838
01:25:24,244 --> 01:25:26,246
Yes, it was a shame. A shame.
839
01:25:26,413 --> 01:25:29,374
They found him crawling on the floor
840
01:25:29,541 --> 01:25:32,210
and howling like a banshee.
841
01:25:32,377 --> 01:25:36,965
Took four men just to put him
into the straitjacket.
842
01:25:37,132 --> 01:25:42,220
Nervous disorder, they called it,
but actually, he's quite mad.
843
01:25:42,387 --> 01:25:47,809
Hello? I'd like to check on the condition
of a Mr. Harolds, Edgar j.
844
01:25:53,940 --> 01:25:55,817
Thank you.
845
01:26:01,657 --> 01:26:07,037
A letter written by a madman is hardly
what they call prime evidence,
846
01:26:07,204 --> 01:26:08,747
is it, mr booker?
847
01:26:09,915 --> 01:26:12,918
Well, as I told you, gentlemen,
I have rather a busy day ahead of me,
848
01:26:13,085 --> 01:26:16,546
so if you'll excuse me,
I'm sure you can find your own way out.
849
01:26:21,843 --> 01:26:23,804
Oh, by the way, mr booker.
850
01:26:23,970 --> 01:26:28,475
Tragic news about your lady friend.
Margaret, was it?
851
01:26:28,642 --> 01:26:32,562
All that information she had
must have been irreplaceable.
852
01:26:32,729 --> 01:26:34,106
Tragic.
853
01:26:34,272 --> 01:26:36,024
You bastard!
854
01:27:02,426 --> 01:27:03,969
Wait a minute.
855
01:27:13,812 --> 01:27:16,606
Accelerator pedal working alright today?
856
01:27:23,238 --> 01:27:25,282
Work for Morgan?
857
01:27:25,449 --> 01:27:27,701
Do you?
858
01:27:46,928 --> 01:27:48,847
We're running a little late, Franklin.
859
01:28:00,901 --> 01:28:03,111
Man on TV: Secretary of state Morgan
wiii become
860
01:28:03,278 --> 01:28:06,448
one of the youngest men
ever to achieve this high office.
861
01:28:06,615 --> 01:28:10,202
He's described as one of the new breed
of dipiomats for the '70s.
862
01:28:10,368 --> 01:28:13,205
Although still in his early 403,
863
01:28:13,371 --> 01:28:16,249
Morgan has had
a long and distinguished career
864
01:28:16,416 --> 01:28:18,877
as one of america's leading diplomats.
865
01:28:19,044 --> 01:28:21,171
His skill at top-level negatiations
866
01:28:21,338 --> 01:28:23,757
has made him one of the few
state department leaders to...
867
01:28:50,826 --> 01:28:52,619
Franklin, where are we going?
868
01:28:52,786 --> 01:28:55,831
Franklin, I said, “where are we going?”
869
01:29:00,961 --> 01:29:04,047
Good morning, mr secretary.
870
01:29:06,299 --> 01:29:09,010
Just what in the hell
do you think you're doing?
871
01:29:09,177 --> 01:29:11,721
You said I was a good jungle fighter.
872
01:29:11,888 --> 01:29:13,431
Well, I'm also a fast learner.
873
01:29:30,282 --> 01:29:32,701
Alright, now, you stop this car, you fool.
874
01:29:32,868 --> 01:29:36,204
Relax, Morgan, we're just going to talk.
875
01:29:38,623 --> 01:29:41,626
Alright, go ahead. Talk!
876
01:29:41,793 --> 01:29:44,838
What you said about expedience
made a hell of a lot of sense.
877
01:29:45,005 --> 01:29:50,176
I see there's only one way to deal
with people like you — expediently.
878
01:29:50,343 --> 01:29:54,806
You won all the battles, Morgan,
but you're gonna lose this war.
879
01:29:54,973 --> 01:29:56,808
How would you like to be an Mia?
880
01:29:56,975 --> 01:29:58,476
What are you talking about?
881
01:29:58,643 --> 01:30:02,522
When it comes time for your swearing-in
today, you're not gonna be there.
882
01:30:04,357 --> 01:30:06,109
I'll be there. Uh-uh.
883
01:30:06,276 --> 01:30:07,652
You're dreaming, booker.
884
01:30:07,819 --> 01:30:09,654
Am I?
885
01:30:18,330 --> 01:30:21,291
Booker, they're going to
come looking for me.
886
01:30:21,458 --> 01:30:27,005
You can't just disappear a secretary
of state without arousing someone's ire.
887
01:30:27,172 --> 01:30:28,423
Let 'em look.
888
01:30:28,590 --> 01:30:31,968
Alright, booker.
Tell me, what's your plan, huh?
889
01:30:32,135 --> 01:30:33,970
If you get away with this, Morgan,
890
01:30:34,137 --> 01:30:36,723
it'll betray every guy that ever died
in any war we ever had.
891
01:30:36,890 --> 01:30:41,353
And god knows how many more people
you'll kill in the future.
892
01:30:41,519 --> 01:30:44,606
I'm not gonna let it happen.
893
01:30:44,773 --> 01:30:47,901
You're insane. It won't work.
894
01:30:48,068 --> 01:30:49,486
You can bet your ass it will.
895
01:30:49,653 --> 01:30:52,238
Crazy, goddamn idiot!
896
01:30:52,405 --> 01:30:54,950
You stop this car! You hear me?
897
01:30:55,116 --> 01:30:58,286
Stop this car or I'll... I'll kill you!
898
01:30:58,453 --> 01:31:00,121
You're panicking, Morgan.
899
01:31:00,288 --> 01:31:01,915
Stop the goddamn car!
900
01:32:22,871 --> 01:32:25,165
Man on radio: The Greenpeace
foundation in San Francisco
901
01:32:25,331 --> 01:32:27,709
says the Russians
are using 250-pound explosive...
902
01:32:27,876 --> 01:32:29,252
Are you ok?
903
01:32:29,419 --> 01:32:31,212
Which are against
international treaties.
904
01:32:31,379 --> 01:32:33,381
In Washington, meantime,
905
01:32:33,548 --> 01:32:35,468
the state department
has an even bigger headache.
906
01:32:35,550 --> 01:32:37,385
Who will be its new boss?
907
01:32:37,552 --> 01:32:39,721
Conrad Morgan, who was due
to be sworn in this morning,
908
01:32:39,888 --> 01:32:41,848
suddenly asked the president
to withdraw his name.
909
01:32:41,890 --> 01:32:43,767
Come on. I'll give you a lift.
910
01:32:43,933 --> 01:32:45,813
Morgan himself has been
unavailable for comment.
911
01:32:45,977 --> 01:32:47,729
He is said to be keeping a low profile
912
01:32:47,896 --> 01:32:49,814
in a secret hideaway
on chesapeake bay.
913
01:32:49,981 --> 01:32:51,357
There you go.
914
01:32:51,524 --> 01:32:53,044
Also unavailable
for comment this morning
915
01:32:53,068 --> 01:32:55,570
is Morgan's long-time deputy,
Edgar harolds.
916
01:32:55,737 --> 01:32:59,157
It is speculated that harolds
might now be nominated for the job,
917
01:32:59,324 --> 01:33:01,993
but he is reportedly
in the Bethesda naval hospital
918
01:33:02,160 --> 01:33:04,662
undergoing
his annual physical examination.
919
01:33:04,829 --> 01:33:07,457
Morgan's withdrawal
came as a shock to most...
920
01:33:07,624 --> 01:33:09,793
Booker: I see you've had
a busy morning too.
921
01:33:09,959 --> 01:33:13,088
Murray: Yeah,
it was nothing like yours.
